IIRC (and it hasn't changed in the years since I knew this stuff) we
already have this on some of the netconsole install images for
arm{el,hf}, you end up with an installer on serial and one on the ssh
connection. Not an identical situation since I think the second one is
only spawned when you login via ssh, but some sort of precedence I
guess!
